  • Exploring Leonardo da Vinci with an Art Expert

He talked about his sketches, diagrams and artwork, explaining how he used mathematics and physics to produce realistic and anatomically correct diagrams. We also learnt about Da Vinci's interest in flight and some of the diagrams he had created. Martin Kemp was part of a project to produce a real model of the wings Da Vinci had sketched.

It was a fascinating talk which has made me want to find out more!
